TSK · Psalms 49:5

He took up his parable, and said, "From Aram has Balak brought me, the king of Moab from the mountains of the East. Come, curse Jacob for me. Come, defy Israel.

For dogs have surrounded me. A company of evildoers have enclosed me. They have pierced my hands and feet.

Yahweh is my light and my salvation. Whom shall I fear? Yahweh is the strength of my life. Of whom shall I be afraid?

God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble.

I will open my mouth in a parable. I will utter dark sayings of old,

If you falter in the time of trouble, your strength is small.

They don't consider in their hearts that I remember all their wickedness. Now their own deeds have engulfed them. They are before my face.

saying, 'Don't be afraid, Paul. You must stand before Caesar. Behold, God has granted you all those who sail with you.'

redeeming the time, because the days are evil.
